THE ADULTERA TION OF MEDICINES. The great importance of protecting drugs from adulterations, substitutions and deteriorations must be maiiifest.to everybody. If the physician cannot rely on the quality and "strength of the medicinal drugs he prescribes, if there is no standard for them maintained by all apothecaries, he is, of course, very much at sea in his treatment of disease. Take the case of opium and rhubarb, for instance, two drugs of the common and extensive use. If the opium and opium preparations in tbe. market are of variable quality and of uncertain strength, doses which pro duce tbe effects t&e physician desires when standard articles are used may rather aggravate tbe symptoms he would alleviate, and bring pain instead of quiet to his patient, when the opium is adulterated and weakened by sub stitutions. Rhubarb, when of the standard quality, produces a first and a secondary effect which are both of value, but when it is poor and adul terated, only tbe first effect can be ob tained. It is true that in all our large cities there are many reputable druggists who may be trusted to send out only the best quality of drugs, so far as they can obtain it. But the physician cannot always know that his prescrip tion is to be filled by one of these druggists. Moreover, inferior drugs are often sold to the country apothe caries, who may have a custom which is more eager for low prices than par ticular about getting articles of the best sort. The buyer is unable to de tect the difference in qualities, and therefore it is easy to palm off inferior goods upon him. We have in this country several large manufacturing pharmacies which are known to almost every physician, and whose names give assurance that their preparations are of the highest merit, but there are others which turn out goods of an in different sort to meet the demand for low prices even at the sacrifice of qual ity ; and that demand is always large. Mr. C. Lewis Diehl has just pre pared for the National Board of Health a very exhaustive report on deteriorations, adulterations, and sub stitutions of drugs in the United States. He presents in it a classified list of the inferiorities and a history of the business of falsification which are of much interest. It seems that pre vious to the passage by Congress, in 1848, of the law regulating the impor tation of drugs, the United States af forded a great market for damaged and adulterated drugs, sent out by Euro pean establishments, which collected and manufactured them especially for this country. Indeed, Dr. M. I. Bai ley, the first examiner of drugs ap pointed for New York, is authority for the statement that nearly half of those imported into New York before the year 1848 were spurious. In one of his reports he speaks of a certain ex tensive manufactory in Brussels ex clusively devoted to the adulteration and imitation of the most important medicinal chemicals, all intended for sale in the United States. The law of 1848 shutting out their goods, mem ' bers of the firm subsequently trans ferred their dishonest manufacture to this country. And as late as 1871 certain wholesale houses were pointed out by Prof. Remington as regularly engaged in the business of adultera tion. Powdered drugs offer the best op portunities for the mixing of foreign substances, and formulas for the prep aration of the falsified articles are still in more or less extensive use. Vola tile oils are now adulterated to a shameful extent, and Mr. E. Q. Squibb, the well-known pharmacist, reports that of eleven commercial specimens of ether not one in any way approach ed the official requirements, while ordinary ether is often quite unclean. If we rnn through the long list of drugs given by Mr. Diehl, we find that nearly every one is subject to de teriorations due to natural changes for the worse on account of age or expos ure, or is liable contain impurities and cootaminations introduced either dur ing the collection of the drug or by the process of it manufacture, or is fre quently open to suspicion because of adulterations which are wholly the work of design. Care must also be taken by the buyer to guard against the substitution of other substances, due sometimes to accident and some times to design. Take a few of the drugs of most general use in medicine, such as opium, rhubarb, aloes, and jalap. Our opium comes from Egypt and Asia Minor, and, though a good article may be ob tained from respectable dealers, it varies naturally in its morphia strength often contains excessive quantities of vegetable tissues, and is mixed with earthy and other inorganic matter. It is also adulterated with various kinds of resinous, saccharine, and mucilagin ous substances. Opium sometimes contains 20 per cent, of foreign matter, chiefly lead, and the powder is adul terated to the extent of 50 per cent. Besides, much inferior opium is in the market because of the indiscriminate sale of "prize goods" by the Govern ment. As to rhubarb, it is always more or less difficult to obtain a good quality of the drug in the market. Rhubarb rejected at our Custon Houses has been at times returned to England, where it is ground up with a superior article, and afterwards ad mitted as a powder. Again, the pow der is often made here of inferior rhu barb, and rendered bright by turmeric; but select Chinese rhubarb may al ways be had at advanced prices. Jalap which comes from Mexico, varies much in quality, according to the sea son and the care used in its collection and selection. But it is also often adulterated with the tubers of other plants. Much inferior jalap is in the market The Custom House reports have shown that a large proportion of the jalap imported into this county comes from Europe, and only a small proportion direct from Mexico. The European (chiefly the English) market absorbs the best lots, and turns the inferior ones adrift over here. Soco trine aloes of good quality are very scarce. Extraneous impurities are of ten introduced by tho process of prep aration, and inferior grades are sub stituted for those of more value. Great care has to be exercised in pur chasing the prepared grades, both whole and as powder. Adulterations and substitutions like these, to a greater or less extent, run through the list of drugs given in this report. And it is not the crude drug and the imported preparations only that are subject to such injurious treat ment. When the careless drug collec tor or the dishonest foreign adulterator has done his work, when the whole sale manufacturers at home have in troduced further falsifications, the un scrupulous apothecary also conies in with his reduction of the strength of standard medicines, in order that he may put down his prices and under sell his competitors. It is easy, there fore, to see how much care is required to procure medicinal drugs and prepa rations upon which the physician can relv. Such articles are, of course, ob tainable, but they command good prices, and must be selected with judg ment. As a remedy for the very grave evils which follow adulterations, this report recommends the enactment of State laws to authorize some form of inspection by wbich delinquents can be reached. The law of Congress now works, in the main, satisfactorily, though it could probably be improved by a wise revision. But no such law can cover the whole field, for it docs not reach the home adulterator, who is one of tbe most mischievous agents in this business. VALUABLE REAL -AND— PERSONIIPROFERTI FOR SALE.

Ayer's Hair Vigor, FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR. IT is a most agreeable dressing, which is at once harmless and effectual, for pre serving the hair. It restores, with the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray, light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep black, as may be desired. By its use thin hair is thickened, and baldness often though not always cured. It checks falling of the hair immediately, and causes a new growth in all cases where the glands are not decayed; while to brasliy, weak, 01 otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitalit] and strength, and renders it pliable. The V IGOR cleanses the scalp, cures and prevents the formation of dandruff; and, by its cooling, stimulating, aud soothing properties, it heals most if not all of th( humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under which conditions diseases of the scalp and hair are impossible. As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair The VIGOR is Incomparable. It is color less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will not soil white cambric. It imparts an agreeable and lasting perfume, and as art article for the toilet it is economical and unsurpassed in its excellence. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Practical and Analytical Chemists.

Put a man at the wish-tub, let him r t heated from the hot suds until every pore is opened; then let him stand o'er the filthy steam that comes from scalding and boiling clothe-?, that are full of sweat and exhalations Imm tne akin and his health too would break aown before long; and yet this most terrible ordeal is whai A WOMAN has to go through with on wash-day; and. besides, with her clothing wet from perspiring a the hot work, she has to risk her life by going out in the air to hnng up the clothes. KV. E those not at work are in the unhealthy atmosphere; its smell, so apparent to visitors, show in* that it finds its way through the house,—the family, however often becoming .so accus tomed to the peculiar odor from its own wash as not to notice it. These facta readily ex- Dlain why so many women sufTer with colds, rheumatism, weak nerves, or neuralgia, and LOOK OLD while yet young in years, and physicians and boards of health cannot draw attention too strongly to tho injurious effects of the usual way of washing, with its necessary steami and scalding or boiling to get the clothes pure and sweet-smelling, especially as it is without doubt often the direct cause of those dreadful diseases, diphtheria, consumption, and typhoid fever Fortunately this trouble ran be avoided; scalding, boiling, steam and smell from the wash completely done away with; clothes made sweet and beautiiully vJhitt., from the Hiving in fuel the uxuA done at leu cost than even when homemaile toap u used, and > cry much SOONER THAN by the old way. by using FRANK BIDDAIXS SOAP,-a Soap so purifying and cleansing that the dirtiest clothing can be washed in lukewarm water with very little rubbing, and clothes bedding and utensils used by the sick disinfected and cleansed without either Scaldin* oTboiling. While the work is so light that a girl twelve or thirteen years of age can do a fanze without being tired; and yet so mild and healing is this Soap that for toilet and no advise its use in preference to imported Soup on A MAN who is not directly interested in having used in their homes, in splt« of prejudice, THAT WONDERFULWAY OF WASHING CLOTHES, which does away with the hard work, offensive and fearful steam on wash-days, makes the white pieces whiter, colored pieces brighter and flannels softer than they can be made by washing the old way. leaves the hands smooth enough to do fine sewing and ewery article as clean, as sweet and as pure as if never worn. •^TESTIMONIALS^' From n. E. BoWT-KS, U. D„ nammonton, N. J., Fxlitor fi/iUJi Jrrtey Srpubliran. My attention was called to FRANK STDDALLS SO VP from an advertisement In my own paper, and Its use in my house for nearly a year, according to the directions, has proved that Its remarkable properties have not been overstated. For remov ing printing ink it Is invaluable, while for toilet and shaving It Is the best Soap I have ever seen. From MBS. H. L. KKNYON, Northfleld, Vt I do my wash with FRANK SIDDALLSSOAP ln half the time and with no expense tor Soap, cu me laving in fuel more than pays for it. Ihavenosteam or scent from the wash, while the saving la health, clothes and labor can hardly be estimated. From E. W. STANTON, 1506 N. 20th St, Phllada. We are confident, from a long experience In using and recommending FRANK StDDALLS BOAP, that one trial, according to the very easy Drinted directions, will overcome all prejudices. It .inn really has wonderful merit for shaving, toilet, The following are the Directions for Use, so simple that a child can understand tliem. Dont do anything so ridiculous as to buy the Soap unless you intend following them. Ma-SIOO positively forfeited if it injure s the clothes, or trill not do everything claimed. First, put the white clothes in a tub of water, only made warm enough to be comfortable for the hands. Then take one piece out at a time on the wash-board, rub the Soap lightly over it, roll it up and put it back into the same tub, and so on with each piece until nil have the Soap rubbed on them. Then go away and let them soak at least twenty minute*, without touching them, when the dirt will all be loosened, and a very little rubbmg oa the wash-board, out of that one suds, will make them perfectly clean, being particular to turn each piece while washing so as to get at the seams. Then wash lightly on the wash board, through a lukewarm rinse-water (without any Soap,) so as to get the dirty suds out. Then put through blue-water, and on the line, without scalding or boiling a single picc& Afterward put flannels and colored pieces to soak, and wash them exactly the same way. It is important not to heat the wash-water in a tin, brass or copper kettle. A tea-kettle will heat enough water for a large wash with this Soap. Just Think What You will Save by this Easy Way of Washing! No Wash-boiler! No Steam! No Smell of Suds through the House! It has the remarkable Property of keeping the Dish-Cloth, Wash-Rag and Sponge always Sweet, and of Washing Freely in Hard Water. -H'SOLD BT GROCERS I-*- Get a Cake and Try it for Yourself next Wash-Day.

BES^^^^WOBLDI THE SYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO. of SyraouM, N. V. Are now putting on the market a Plow that Is as much superior to any Plow heretofore made as the Plows ot the past few years have been superior to those made half a century ago. It combines all the excellencies of any Plow In use. It obrlates ECU the objections made to any other Plow. In addition It embraces several new features of the greatest value, for which we have ob tained exclusive Patents. Its Beam, Clevis, Jointer Standard and Wheel Standard will be STEEL, and Its mold board will be a composition of Steel and Iron chilled under a process for which we have also obtained an exclusive Patent. It will be called THE SYRACUBE CHILLED STEEL PLOW Its weight will be eighteen pounds less than our present styles. A first-class Steel Plow, made In the or dinary way, full rigged, retails for twenty-two dollars. Inferior Steel Plows retail from six teen to nineteen dollars. The price of our new Plow will be but Seventeen Dollar*, and It Will be the cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold. Its mold board will outwear three of the very best kinds of the ordinary steel mold boards. It will scour In soils where all steel plows and all other plows have hitherto proved a failure. With this Plow will be Introduced a corru gated Plow Point and Jointer Point, on whlck we have also obtained a Patent, and which la also a great improvement, both as regards Strength and wear. The Jointer can be shifted so as to take more or less land, and also more or less pitch, and It can always be kept on a line with the Plow. The wheel will run under the beam or one side of It as desired, and always kept In line. The beam Is adjustable for Spring or Fall Plowing, and clso for two or three horsea The handles can be adjusted to accommo date a man or boy, on the same Plow. It Is a perfect Plow. Wooden beams are going out of use because they shrink, swell and warp, and never run two seasons alike. Iron beams are too heavy. Malleable beams become demoralized and tend, which is much worse than to break. A Steel beam Is the necessity of the day. It b three times as strong and very much lighter than any other style. When we say a Mold board Is chilled, tho farmers know It Is so. We do not palm ofT on them a composition Of various metals and call It chilled metal. We want agents for this new Plow in every town In this State. We can give but a very small discount to them, but we will pay the Railroad Freight. We propose to place this Plow in the hands of Farmers as near the cost of manufacture as possible. It wUI be the best Agricultural Implement ever sold. It shall also be tha cheapen. Persons therefore who are not willing to act as agents on the principle that " a nimble six pence is better than a slow shilling," need not apply for an agency. No Plows on commission. All sales absolute. WThls Is the only Steel Chilled Plow in the World. Steel costs several times more than Iron. But this Plow, full rigged, by giving small discounts, can be sold for Seventeen Dollars. Compare thi* price with that of any Iron Plow ever made. It Is cheaper than any other Plow now Bade would be at five dollars and a half. Where there are no agents we will, on re ceipt of Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any Railroad station In the State and pay tho freight Address, SYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO. Syracuse, N.
